69. Offer a sky-high price
Li Xiang couldn't help but be surprised, "What? 5 million, Orris? Is there something wrong with my ears, or is there something wrong with your brain? To put it into account, the average slave will sell me 50,000 Sesters? Are you kidding me? ”
"Huh! I'm not kidding you. Slaves have always been regarded only as tools that can speak human words, of course, they are worthless, and some slaves are sold for less than a horse, but some people really think that they are "sent down by God", and they regard slaves as human beings. ”
"They are human beings and deserve to be free."
"If, according to your logic, slaves are also people, can three or four thousand Sesters buy a man? Let's use an analogy! If a slave is killed by a carriage, the owner of the carriage pays the slave owner 3,000 Sestes, and the slave owner has to laugh off, but if the carriage hits and kills a Roman citizen, how much does the owner of the carriage have to compensate? I'm sure you know better than I do! ”
Hearing this, Lee wondered if Siddula had set himself up.
Sidula continued: "Anyway, there is no distinction between 'urban hukou' and 'rural hukou' in Rome now, and a life is worth 50,000 Sesters, as the 'spokesperson' of Augustus, there should be no objections, right?" He looked at Li Xiang with extreme contempt.
Li Xiang was speechless.
Sidullah continued: "Since I have come to you, of course, I sincerely want to fulfill your wishes, so don't be unappreciative! ”
Li Xiang calculated the account in his heart, and the more he calculated, the more he became more and more confident, because, if it was according to the sky-high price offered by Xidula,
Even if you add up the rest of the money and the championship bonus, it's just a drop in the bucket.
Sidula seemed to see through Li Xiang's thoughts, and said, "Are you worrying about money?"
"You think Rome is the only one you have?"
Sidullah patted his head and said, "Look at my memory, you have four big brothers in Greece who open a bank, and you can still lack money?" ”
Gaulje said, "Boss! The money that kid gambled on last time was borrowed from his so-called big brothers, and I don't know if he paid it back? ”
"Aren't you a humble man? No matter how poor people are, they are still Augustus's 'red men'! The money in the inner house is not the same as your own money. ”
"Yes, yes, yes! That's right. ”
Sidula said to Li Xiang: "As for whose money it is, it doesn't have much to do with me, as long as you can give me 5 million Oris, I will never break my promise." After a pause, he continued: "If you are really short of money, you might as well consider selling me the "Sun God" trophy that your team won, and I will buy it at a high price." Then he laughed wildly.
Gauljah and his bodyguards were laughing.
Sidullah said to his men, "Let's go!" ”
5 million Orris, about 8 billion yuan, sounds like a scary number, but it is closely linked to the fate of 10,000 people.
However, as the saying goes: "A penny kills a hero", it is impossible for Li Xiang, who used to be a businessman, not to understand this truth, but for a while, he really ran out of ideas.
Li Xiang leaned his elbows on the guardrail of the bridge, looking into the distance, thinking about his thoughts.
A hand patted Li Xiang's shoulder.
Lee wanted to turn around.
See Auman.
Li Xiang said to Auman, "Eh! How did you know I was here? ”
"I followed Sidullah to find this place."
"What are you doing with him? Did he commit a crime? ”
Orman shook his head and said, "I just overheard Sidula looking for you, and I was worried that he might be bad for you, so I followed him." ”
Li Xiang couldn't help but be moved: "Thank you for your concern." ”
"Huh! We're brothers! ”
"Do you know what he's looking for me for?"
"I hid behind a big tree, I didn't hear too clearly, but I vaguely heard you talking about the slave trade, didn't I?"
Li Xiang nodded.
"He's changed?"
"'Transsexuality'?" Li Xiang said a little angrily, "The sex change is almost the same." ”
"'Transgender'? What does transgender mean. ”
Li Xiang explained: "It is a woman to a man, and a man to a woman. ”
Orman frowned.
"A woman can become a man, and a man can become a woman, but Hitura's will never be sexual."
"What do you mean, he still doesn't want to sell?"
"Definitely! He wanted to sell all his slaves to me. ”
"Wouldn't that be what you wanted?"
Li Xiang sighed and shook his head, "It's a pity! I can't afford it. ”
"'Can't afford it'? How can it be? ”
"He's offering a sky-high price."
"'Sky-high'? How much is it? ”
"5,000,000 Orris."
Orman couldn't help but be moved and surprised, "'5 million Orris'? He can't be crazy about money, right? ”
"He calculated that I couldn't come up with so much money at all, so he deliberately made things difficult for me."
"It's disgusting."
"So much money, where can I get it." Li Xiang sighed and turned his face to look into the distance.
"The wool comes out of the sheep."
Li Xiang turned his face and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"Come with me."
"Where are you going?"
"Follow me to get the money?"
"'Take the money'? With whom? ”
Orman smiled, then said, "You'll know when you get there." ”
Li Xiang kept muttering in his heart, which big philanthropist could give 5 million Orris.
***
Since all the players of the Italian team were exposed to illegal drugs and broke their wings in the "Rome Cup", Sidula not only lost his official position as chairman of the Athletic Committee, but also suffered heavy losses from his Shengdeying gambling house.
The so-called "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He".
In the past, Sidullah has always regarded football as his "cash cow", but now when he sees football, it is like seeing a ghost, and he wants to make football disappear from this world forever.
As long as the capital is not exhausted, there is still hope for profit, especially the business of opening a gambling house.
No. 8 Jinyin Street, Shengdeying Gambling House.
In the gambling house, gamblers are like clouds, and it is very lively.
Li Xiang followed Auman to the front of Shengdeying's gambling house.
Li Xiang was very puzzled and said, "What are you bringing me here for?" ”
"Take the money!"
"'Take the money'? With whom? ”
"Since you're here, of course you're talking to the boss here!"
"Take money from Heatura?"
Orman nodded.
Li Xiang frowned.
Orman smiled and said, "I'll sell it first, and when I see Sidula, he will naturally pay for it obediently." ”
Li Xiang smiled and nodded, "Then I'll wait to count the money!" ”
"Guaranteed to make you count until you get soft."
Li Xiang smiled and said, "Then I can't ask for it!" ”
The two walked into the gambling house one after another.
When Sidula learned that Li Xiang had come to the gambling house, she came out of the inner room, intending to humiliate Li Xiang again, so she said, "What? In such a half a day, I got 5 million Oris? ”
